Today, the Health and Global Policy Institute (HGPI) Child Health Project has published a booklet on mental health for families titled, “Learning and Practicing at Home – Stress Management for Children with Intellectual Disabilities.”
With the support of the Nippon Foundation, this initiative will develop a skill development program for promoting mental health among students of high school age and with intellectual disabilities as well as verify the program’s effectiveness through its implementation. Our objective will be to establish a mental health support system for children with intellectual disabilities and to create even more opportunities for early detection and intervention for mental health conditions. Furthermore, based on the findings of our effectiveness verification, we will compile policy recommendations with essential perspectives on providing mental health support for children with intellectual disabilities and share these recommendations with policymakers to contribute to promoting children’s health. Additionally, as part of this initiative, we have created an e-learning program for families (Only in Japanese), along with a booklet, to support children with intellectual disabilities and their families.
